  • Is Always Over Now?
rdfs:comment
  • Is Always Over Now? was the Irish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1998 in Birmingham performed by Dawn Martin. The song is a ballad, sung from the perspective of a woman at the end of a relationship. She tells her former lover that "Always, you said, was me and you", and thus wonders "Is always over now?/Does it never last that long?" It was performed 14th on the night following Slovenia and preceding Portugal. At the close of voting, it finished in 9th place with 64 points.

  • Is Always Over Now? was the Irish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1998 in Birmingham performed by Dawn Martin. The song is a ballad, sung from the perspective of a woman at the end of a relationship. She tells her former lover that "Always, you said, was me and you", and thus wonders "Is always over now?/Does it never last that long?" It was performed 14th on the night following Slovenia and preceding Portugal. At the close of voting, it finished in 9th place with 64 points. This was the "swan song" of Noel Kelehan in Eurovision. This conductor accompanied 29 Eurovision songs, among which 24 were Irish entries. No one ever participated on more occasions in Eurovision (and with the abolition of orchestras, probably no one ever will). He conducted no fewer than five winning songs.
